GED Preparation Technological advances in the workplace have made a high school diploma essential for almost all workers. If you want to obtain employment or advance in your career, you will need to demonstrate to you employer that you have at least a high school education. If you never finished high school, the GED exam will serve as proof that you have acquired the equivalent of a high school education on your own. If you are comfortable reading newspapers and you can add, subtract, multiply, and divide without a calculator, you’re halfway there! This course will help you develop the additional reading and thinking skills you’ll need to succeed in all five GED test areas: Writing Skills, Social Studies, Science, Literature, and Math. After completion of this course, you should be well-equipped to take--and pass--the GED! Important: Some GED Testing Centers require proof that you have passed a GED preparation course or the official GED Practice Tests (OPT’s) before you can take the official GED tests. Before enrolling in this course, please check with the official GED Testing Center where you intend to take your tests to make sure that this course will meet their requirements.

You’ll understand and explore the many vulnerabilities of operating systems, software, and networks. Then, you’ll get into the minds of hackers and crackers, developing an understanding of the exploits they use to access your computer without your knowledge. You’ll find out why, where, and how viruses, worms, and blended threats are created. You’ll be able to identify and work to prevent DOS, SYN flooding, and other network attacks. You’ll learn a safe way to share files and data across the Internet through a virtual private network. And you’ll be able to install and configure a firewall to build an impenetrable moat around your computer or network.
